📋🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Two Majors #Summary #Overview for the Morning of 23 June 2024; pub. 07:01📍

🗓 The past week has been characterised by a blatant war escalation on the part of the enemy. Strikes are being carried out on oil refineries and attempts are being made to strike nuclear facilities (#Kursk NPP). According to received info, Western weapons are being used not only in #Belgorod, but also in #Rostov and #Kursk regions. The lack of promotion of this info by official resources (only missiles shot down are added to the daily MoD summary) indicates Moscow's reluctance to go down the path of a direct or asymmetric response, which can be explained by the Supreme's trip to #NorthKorea and @Vietnam against the background of #NATO's undisguised preparations for war with #Russia. That is, we still need time to prepare.

🔹#NATO, in turn, is increasing the pace of military preparations, also counting on a period of 2 to 5 years before a full-scale direct confrontation. These terms are conditioned both by the need to establish military production of the same SAMs and artillery shells, and by the preparation of mobilisation measures, which are already included in the legislative acts and mobilisation plans of the #US, #Germany and even the Baltic States. Until then, the role of a suicidal battering ram is fulfilled by #Ukraine, which is regarded by Washington only as a testing ground for arms.

🔹Kiev is mobilising the population, not hesitating to expose the TCC itself as a lightning rod from Zelensky: it is important to keep the powerless masses in control, even at the expense of long-term prospects, which Bankova certainly does not live by.

🔹In the MoD is a demonstrative dismantling of the toxic legacy of the previous failed team. Belousov's showy trips and informational accents are aimed at restoring the confidence of the military class in the leadership. A striking event was the presentation of awards to the Wagners by the deputy defence minister, especially on the eve of the anniversary of the Prigozhin riot, which even now is still referred to by many as the "March of Justice", the demand for which is extremely high in our country.

🔹On the front, the situation has not changed much, although the Russian Army retains the initiative in most areas and is really grinding down the enemy's manpower. The enemy is gradually finding resistance to FABs and UMPCs, so the RFAF are increasingly using the latest UMPCs, which can be launched not only from aircraft, but also from MLRSs.

🔹A problem remains countering the destruction of our air defence systems, for which the AFU staged a targeted hunt, sparing Western missiles. In addition, the enemy is able to launch dozens of aircraft-type UAVs every day; our burning oil refineries show that there is still a lot of work to neutralise this threat. It also cannot be said that problems with communications, electronic warfare, transport, and timely failure of material assets have been fully resolved.

🔹The political leadership does not yet intend to sound the alarm bells and use the full potential of the entire nation, which, apparently, is due to the forecasts about the long-term nature of the war, the need to preserve social stability, as well as the economic potential. As we understand, it seems inexpedient to spend this resource now on #Ukraine.

🔹However, there are excesses in preserving the people's tranquility: the same governor of the Belgorod region, during another personal visit to the border regions, pointed out the actual need for voluntary evacuation of the elderly and children, stressing that the federal centre had provided resources for this purpose.

📌 Thus, the Russian Army continues offensive actions at the front, trying to conserve personnel and reserves in offensive battles, while the defence establishment is busy eliminating deficiencies within itself and adjusting to the efficiency of the military machine, linking the work of the rear and the front to ensure a long war.
